Hey guys! I posted this in the joker thread, but I guess I' ll post it here as well.
First off, I'd like to thank all the members here for your support. It has been very overwhelming to see all the compliments, and support from you guys. I can't say enough thank you..really.
For those of you who are familiar with me here, I was never comfortable with selling my unlicensed stuff.(Maybe you've sent pms to me in the past several times without hearing back from me. Sorry..I should've handled it better, but I have a hard time saying no to people...I'm working on it. Sorry! I apologize to those who never heard back from me. )
I sold a very limited edition of a few of my sculpts before the massive release of the Wayne heads. I was in college at that time, and some extra cash was pretty darn great to help out between my tuition and rent, but that doesn't justify what I did, and it was wrong. It was stealing.
Commercializing sculpts of movie character/ celebrity without license is illegal for sure. In my case, I did not come up with the idea or the imagery of the Joker or Bruce Wayne, and I simply just copied their likenesses to the best of my ability from photographs.
I'm sorry for what I did in the past, and from now on I'd like to keep all my unlicensed stuff strictly personal, and I am working on some licensed sculpts too. I'll occasionally take one of a kind private commissions strictly on private basis.
I'd like to thank you all for your understanding and support. You all have been very kind to me. Thank you!
Sincerely
Adam
